I was thinking of the wheel in terms not of wagons but of pottery. That is I assume that the really important 'early' use of the wheel was the potter's wheel But you would still be correct. Wheelmade pottery was a sophisticated technological development, while the stone ax is pre-homo s. I'm too fond of the word "bizarre" and should learn to control my use of it, since the wrod more often conuses than develops conversation.
